Cookie Policy di APChef
This document contains information about the technologies that allow this Application to achieve the purposes described below. These technologies allow the Owner to collect and store information, for example through the use of Cookies, or to use resources, for example by running a script, on the User’s device when the User interacts with this Application.
For simplicity, in this document such technologies are collectively referred to as “Trackers”, unless there is a reason to differentiate.
For example, although Cookies can be used in both web and mobile browsers, it would be inaccurate to talk about Cookies in the context of applications for mobile devices, since they are Trackers that require the presence of a browser. For this reason, within this document the term Cookies is used only to specifically indicate that particular type of Tracker.
Some of the purposes for which Trackers are used may require the User’s consent. Where consent is given, it may be freely withdrawn at any time by following the instructions contained in this document.
This Application uses Trackers managed directly by the Owner, commonly referred to as “first-party” Trackers, and Trackers that enable services provided by third parties, commonly referred to as “third-party” Trackers. Unless otherwise specified within this document, such third parties have access to their respective Trackers.
The duration and expiration of Cookies and other similar Trackers may vary depending on what is set by the Owner or by each third-party provider. Some of them expire at the end of the User’s browsing session.
In addition to what is specified in the description of each category below, Users may obtain more detailed and updated information on duration, as well as any other relevant information, by consulting the privacy policies of the respective third-party providers or by contacting the Owner.
